    KRW have been our business and personal accountants for 10+ years and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They have been with us throughout the highs and lows of running our own business, supporting us in a highly professional, expert, friendly way. This work extended to to seeing us through our sale, dealing expertly with (and winning plaudits from) the third biggest publisher in the world, whom we sold to. They continue to expertly look after our personal accounts - Annette is quite simply brilliant at managing this for us, and is just lovely to deal with. Sandra has been amazing on the administration side down the years, and Keith, at the head of it all, has guided us with such canny intelligence and confidence born from knowledge and experience, that we always feel that he, and the team there, have our backs. They have also saved us a lot of money (and stress) down the years with highly effective planning and informed advice and guidance. This really is one brilliant business!

  • I have been working with Alex and the team since I launched my business. Being new to running a business and accounts, I found that he and the team are always available to guide me through what is required. They provide an efficient and professional service. This is not an accountancy firm where you can only speak to your client manager. Alex has always been available whenever, I have wanted to speak to him.

    Keith and the team are exactly what we were looking for in accountants They got us out of a corner when we first joined after the mess left by our previous accountants. As a small business, our account Manager Alex is always ready to help us and responds to phone calls and emails immediately. We came to KRW through a recommendation and I would highly recommend to anyone who needs an accountancy firm that you can build a relationship with.
